About the wine
Merlot Leopold is a red wine of great concentration and elegance, made in Oslavia, in the heart of Friuli Venezia Giulia.
It comes from selected Merlot grapes and careful winemaking that favours ripe fruit, balance and the ability to evolve over time. A wine with power that never loses finesse.
Winemaking and ageing
The 100% Merlot grapes are picked by hand when fully ripe.
After fermentation, the wine ages in wood, where it gains aromatic complexity, structure and softness.
Ageing then continues in bottle, bringing the wine to balance and depth.
